Not that anyone reading my feed is who should be reading this, but if you have fond memories of BBC Basic and the BBC Micro, you're not allowed to be transphobic and have to boycott Harry Potter. Sorry (not sorry), I don't make the rules.

(Those things were made by a trans woman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie_Wilson#BBC_Micro)

Please share with people who discovered computers in the 80s and grew up to be bigots. Even the worst villain can have a Heel-Face Turn redemption arc.

@semanticist (Slightly awkwardly, though, apparently her credit in the BBC Micro's ROM is under her deadname.)

@only_ohm She didn't transition until a decade later, so at least it's not like a conscious deadnaming. I've read that she mostly went by her surname, but I guess people would make gender assumptions based on that too.

At least her CBE was in the correct name!

@semanticist her impact was a bit bigger than that - ever heard of ARM?
